Backtick key doesn't work like expecting on my macbook

Backtick key doesn’t work like expecting on my macbook

Since I switch my PC on windows to a macbook, I had some problem with the backtick caracter.

Writing code in Teams didn’t work

Writing some caracters after give me an accentuated caracter

a e u i o

à è ù ì ò

Can’t have a pair of the first caracters

I had to press manually two times the key and I had some weird behavior when I wanted a code block (6 backtip)

Like this block of code

The solution

To fix this I installed a software named Ukelele

Installation

From brew

For those who use brew, use this command brew install Ukelele

From their website

Method

Follow the steps

Open Ukelele
